Description:
Narcotic analgesics are used to relieve pain. Some of these
medicines are also used just before or during an operation to
help the anesthetic work better. Codeine and hydrocodone are
also used to relieve coughing. Methadone is also used to help
some people control their dependence on heroin or other
narcotics. Narcotic analgesics may also be used for other
conditions as determined by your doctor.

Narcotic analgetics act in the central nervous system (CNS) to
relieve pain. Some of their side effects are also caused by
actions in the CNS.

If a narcotic is used for a long time, it may become
habit-forming (causing mental or physical dependence). Physical
dependence may lead to withdrawal side effects when you stop
taking the medicine.

These medicines are available only with your medical doctor’s
or dentist’s prescription. For some of them, prescriptions
cannot be refilled and you must obtain a new prescription from
your medical doctor or dentist each time you need the medicine.
In addition, other rules and regulations may apply when
methadone is used to treat narcotic dependence.

Precautions:
If you will be taking this medicine for a long time (for
example, for several months at a time), your doctor should check
your progress at regular visits.

Narcotic analgesics will add to the effects of alcohol and other
CNS depressants (medicines that slow down the nervous system,
possibly causing drowsiness). Some examples of CNS depressants
are antihistamines or medicine for hay fever, other allergies,
or colds; sedatives, tranquilizers, or sleeping medicine; other
prescription pain medicines including otherr narcotics;
barbiturates; medicine for seizures; muscle relaxants; or
anesthetics, including some dental anesthetics. Do not drink
alcoholic beverages, and check with your medical doctor or
dentist before taking any of the medicines listed above, while
you are using this medicine.

lightheaded, or to feel a false sense of well-being. Make sure
you know how you react to this medicine before you drive, use
machines, or do anything else that could be dangerous if you are
dizzy or are not alert and clearheaded.

Dizziness, lightheadedness, or fainting may occur, especially
when you get up suddenly from a lying or sitting position.
Getting up slowly may help lessen this problem.

Nausea or vomiting may occur, especially after the first couple
of doses. This effect may go away if you lie down for a while.
However, if nausea or vomiting continues, check with your
medical doctor or dentist. Lying down for a while may also help
relieve some other side effects, such as dizziness or
lightheadedness, that may occur.

Before having any kind of surgery (including dental surgery) or
emergency treatment, tell the medical doctor or dentist in
charge that your are taking this medicine.

Narcotic analgesics may cause dryness of the mouth. For
temporary relief, use sugerless candy or gum, melt bits of ice
in your mouth, or use a saliva substitute. However, if dry mouth
continues for more than 2 weeks, check with your dentist.
Continuing dryness of the mouth may increase the chance of a
dental disease, including tooth decay, gum disease, and fungus
infections.

If you have been taking this medicine regularly for several
weeks or more, do not suddenly stop using it without first
checking with your doctor. Your doctor may want you to reduce
gradually the amount you are taking before stopping completely,
in order to lessen the chance of withdrawal side effects.

If you think you or someone else may have taken an overdose, get
emergency help at once. Taking an overdose of this medicine or
taking alcohol or CNS depressants with this medicine may lead to
unconsciousness or death. Signs of overdose include convulsions
(seizures), confusion, severe nervousness or restlessness,
severe dizziness, severe drowsiness, slow or troubled breathing,
and severe weakness.

Description:
Narcotic analgesics are given to relieve pain before or during
surery (including dental surgery) or during labor and delivery.
These medicines may also be given before or together with an
anesthetic (either a general anaesthetic or a local anesthetic),
even when the patient is not in pain, to help the anesthetic
work better.

When a narcotic analgesic is used for surgery or obstetrics
(labor and delivery), it will be given by or under the immediate
supervision of a medical doctor or dentist, or by a
specially-trained nurse, in the doctor’s office or in a
hospital.

Precautions:
For patients going home within a few hours after surgery,
Narcotic analgesics and other medicines that may be given with
them during surgery may cause some people to feel drowsy, tired
or weak for up to a few days after they have been given.
Therefore, for at least 24 hours (or longer if necessary) after
receiving this medicine, do not drive, use machines, or do
anything else that could be dangerous if you are dizzy or are
not alert.

Unless otherwise directed by your medical doctor or dentist, do
not drink alcoholic beverages or take other CNS depressants
(medicines that slow down the nervous system, possibly causing
drowsiness) for about 24 hours after you have received this
medicine. To do so may add to the effects of the narcotic
analgesic. Some examples of CNS depressants are antihistamines
or medicine for hay fever, other allergies, or colds; sedatives,
tranquilizers, or sleeping medicine; prescription pain medicine
or narcotics; barbiturates; medicine for seizures; and muscle
relaxants.

Side effects:

Other commonly used names are
APAP with codeine, Co-codAPAP, Co-hycodAPAP, Co-oxycodAPAP, Co-ProxAPAP

Description:
Combination medicines containing narcotic analgesics and
acetaminophen are used to relieve pain. A narcotic analgesic and
acetaminophen used together may provide better pain relief than
either medicine used alone. In some cases, relief of pain may
come at lower doses of each medicine.

Narcotic analgesics act in the central nervous system (CNS) to
relieve pain. Many of their side effects are also caused by
actions in the CNS. When narcotics are used for a long time,
your body may get used to them so that larger amounts are needed
to relieve pain. This is called tolerance to the medicine. Also,
when narcotics are used for a long time or in large doses, they
may become habit-forming (causing mental or physical
dependence). Physical dependence may lead to withdrawal symptoms
when you stop taking the medicine.

Acetaminophen does not become habit-forming when taken for a
long time or in large doses, but it may cause other unwanted
effects, including liver damage, if too much is taken.

In the U.S., these medicines are available on with your medical
doctor’s or dentist’s prescription. In Canada,
acetaminophen, codeine, and caffeine combinations are available
without a prescription.

other allergies, or colds; sedatives, tranquilizers, or sleeping
medicine; other prescription pain medicine or narcotics;
barbiturates; medicine for seizures; muscle relaxants; or
anesthetics, including some dental anesthetics. Also, there may
be a greater risk of liver damage if you drink three or more
alcoholic beverages while you are taking acetaminophen. Do not
drink alcoholic beverages, and check with your medical doctor or
dentist before taking any of the medicines listed above, while
you are using this medicine.

Too much use of the acetaminophen in this combination medicine
together with certain other medicines may increase the chance of
unwanted effects. The risk will depend on how much of each

Sildenafil (systemic)

Commonly used medicines: Viagra

Description:
Sildenafil belongs to a group of medicines that delay the
enzymes called phosphodiesterases from working too quickly. The
penis is one of the areas where these enzymes work. Sildenafil
is used to treat men who have erectile dysfunction (also called
sexual impotence).

By controlling the enzyme phosphodiesterase, sildenafil helps to
maintain and erection that is produced when the penis is
stroked. Without physical action to the penis, such as that
occurring during sexual intercourse, sildenafill will not work
to cause an erection.

Precautions:
Sildenafil has not been studied with other medicines used for
treatment of erectile dysfunction. Presently, using them
together is not recommended. Use Sildenafil exactly as directed
by your doctor. Do not use more of it and do not use it more
often than your doctor ordered. If too much is used, the chance
of side effects is increased. If you experience a prolonged or
painful erection for 4 hours or more, contact your doctor
immediately. This condition may require prompt medical attention
to prevent tissue damage of the penis and possible permanent
impotence.

Finasteride (systemic)

Commonly used medicines: Propecia,
Proscar

Description:
Finasteride belongs to the group of medicines called enzyme
inhibitors. It is used to treat urinary problems caused by
enlargement of the prostate. In men with very enlarged prostates
and mild to moderate symptoms (difficulty urinating, decreased
flow of urination, hesitation at the beginning or urination,
getting up at night to urinate) finasteride may decrease the
severity of symptoms.

Finasteride blocks an enzyme called 5-alpha-reductase, which is
necessary to change testosterone to another hormone that causes
the prostate to grow. As a result, the size of the prostate is
decreased. The effect of finasteride on the prostate lasts only
as long as the medicine is taken. If it is stopped, the prostate
begins to grow again.

Finasteride also is used by some balding men to stimulate hair
growth. If hair growth is going to occur with the use of
finasteride, it usually occurs after the medicine is used for
about 3 months and lasts only as long as the medicine continues
to be used. The new hair will be lost within 1 year after
finasteride treatment is stopped.

Precautions:
Women of childbearing potential should not use or handle crushed
finasteride tablets. Finasteride can cause birth defects in male
fetuses.

Description:Tretinoin is used to treat acne. It
works partly by keeping skin pores clear. One of the tretinoin
creams is used to treat fine wrinkles, dark spots, or rough skin
on the face caused by damaging rays of the sun. It works by
lightening the skin, replacing older skin layers with newer
skin, and by slowing down the way the body removes skin cells
that may have been harmed by the sun. Tretinoin works best when
used within a skin care program that includes protecting the
treated skin from the sun. However, it does not completely or
permanently erase these skin problems or greatly improve more
obvious changes in the skin, such as deep wrinkles caused by sun
or the natural aging process.

Tretinoin may also be used to treat other skin diseases as
determined by your doctor. Tretinoin is available only with your
doctor’s prescription, in cream, gel and topical solution.

Precautions:
During the first 3 weeks of use, your skin may become irritated.
Also, your acne may seem to get worse before it gets better. It
may take longer than 12 weeks before you notice full improvement
of your acne, even if you use the medicine every day. Check with
your health care professional at any time skin irritation
becomes severe of if your acne does not improve within 8 to 12
weeks.

It is very important that you use this medicine only as
directed. Do not use more of it, do not use it more often, and
do not use it for a longer time than your doctor ordered. To do
so may cause irritation of the skin. Do not apply this medicine
to windburned or sunburned skin or open wounds.

Do not use this medicine in or around the eyes or lips or inside
of the nose. Spread the medicine away from these areas when
applying. If the medicine accidentally gets in these areas, wash
with water at once. Read all directions carefully.

Before applying, wash the skin with a mild soap or cleanser and
warm water using the tips of your fingers. Then gently pat dry.
Do not scrub your face with a sponge or washcloth. Wait 20-30
minutes before applying this medicine to make sure skin is
completely dry. Applying to wet skin can irritate the skin.

Unless the doctor tells you otherwise, it is especially
important to avoid using the following skin products on the same
area as tretinoin: Any other topical acne product containing a
peeling agent such as benzoyl peroxide, resorcinol, salicylic
acid, or sulfur; hair products that are irritating; skin
products that cause sensitivity to the sun, such as those
containing lime or spices; skin products containing a large
amount of alcohol, such as astringents, shaving creams, or after
shave lotions; skin products that are too drying or abrasive.

Description:
Skeletal muscle relaxants are used to relax certain muscles in
your body and relieve the stiffness, pain, and discomfort caused
by strains, sprains, or other injury to your muscles. However,
these medicines do not take the place of rest, exercise or
physical therapy, or other treatment that your doctor may
recommend for your medical problem. Methocarbamol also has been
used to relieve some of the muscle problems caused by tetanus.

Skeletal muscle relaxants act in the central nervous system to
produce their muscle relaxant effects. Their actions in the CNS
may also produce some of their side effects.

In the U.S., these medicines are available only with your
doctor’s prescription. In Canada, some of these medicines are
available without a prescription.

Precautions:
If you will be taking this medicine for a long time, your doctor
should check your progress at regular visits.

This medicine will add to the effects of alcohol and other CNS
depressants. Do not drink alcoholic beverages, and check with
your doctor before taking any of the medicines listed above,
while you are using this medicine.

Skeletal muscle relaxants may cause blurred vision or clumsiness
or unsteadiness in some people. They may also cause some people
to feel drowsy, dizzy, lightheaded, faint, or less alert than
they are normally. Make sure you know how you react to this
medicine before you drive, use machines, or do anything else
that could be dangerous if you are dizzy or are not alert,
well-coordinated, and able to see well.

Description:
Valacyclovir is used to treat the symptoms of herpes zoster
(also known as shingles), a herpes virus infection of the skin;
it is also used to treat and prevent genital herpes infections.
In your body, valacyclovir becomes the anti-herpes medicine,
acyclovir. Although valacyclovir will not cure shingles or
genital herpes, it does help relieve the pain and discomfort and
helps the sores heal faster.

Precautions:If your symptoms do not improve within
a few days, or if they become worse, check with your doctor. The
areas affected by genital herpes or shingles should be kept as
clean and dry as possible. Also, wear loose-fitting clothing to
avoid irritating the sores (blisters).

Acyclovir (systemic)

Commonly used brand names:
Zovirax

Description:
Acyclovir belongs to the family of medicines called antivirals.
Antivirals are used to treat infections caused by viruses.
Usually they work for only one kind or group of virus
infections.

Topical acyclovir is used to treat the symptoms of herpes
simplex virus infections of the skin, mucous membranes, and
genitals. Although topical acyclovir will not cure herpes
simplex, it may help relieve the pain and discomfort and may
help the sores heal faster. Topical acyclovir may also be used
for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Precautions:Women with genital herpes may be more
likely to get cancer of the cervix. Therefore, it is very
important that Pap tests be taken at least once a year to check
for cancer. Cervical cancer can be cured if found and treated
early.

If your symptoms do not improve within one week, or if they
become worse, check with your doctor. The areas affected by
genital herpes or shingles should be kept as clean and dry as
possible. Also, wear loose-fitting clothing to avoid irritating
the sores (blisters).

Herpes infection of the genitals can be caught from or spread to
your partner during any sexual activity. Although you may get
herpes even though your sexual partner has no symptoms, the
infection is more likely to spread if sores are present. This is
true until the sores are completely healed and the scabs have
fallen off. The use of a condom may help prevent the spread of
herpes. However, spermicidal jelly or a diaphragm will not
prevent the spread of herpes. Therefore, it is best to avoid any
sexual activity if either you or your partner has any symptoms
of herpes. It is also important to remember that acylovir will
not keep you from spreading herpes to others.

Paroxetine
(systemic)

Commonly used brand names:
Paxil

Description:Paroxetine is used to treat mental
depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and panic disorder.

Paroxetine belongs to a group of medicines known as selective
serotonin reuptake inhibitors. These medicines are thought to
work by increasing the activity of the chemical serotonin in the
brain. This medicine is only available with your doctor’s
prescription.

Precautions:
It is important that your doctor check your progress at regular
visits to allow for changes in your dose and to help reduce any
side effects.

Do not stop taking this medicine without first checking with
your doctor. Your doctor may want you to reduce the amount you
are taking before stopping completely.

Do not take paroxetine if you have taken a monoamine oxidase
inhibitor in the past 2 weeks. Do not start taking an monoamine
oxidase inhibitor within 2 weeks of stopping paroxetine. If you
do, you may develop confusion, agitation, restlessness, stomach
or intestinal symptoms, sudden high body temperature, extremely
high blood pressure, severe convulsions, or the serotonin
syndrome.

Paroxetine has not been shown to add to the effects of alcohol.
However, use of alcohol is not recommended in patients who are
taking paroxetine.

Paroxetine may cause some people to become drowsy or have
blurred vision. Make sure you know how you react to this
medicine before you drive, use machines, or do anything else
that could be dangerous if you are not alert or able to see
clearly.
